Abstract excerpt
Intragranular and supragranular mossy fibers arise from granule cells and are present in the dentate gyrus of hippocampi from kindled and epileptic animals. The intragranular fibers often appear as fibers perpendicular to the long axis of the granule cell layer at periodic intervals. Rats and gerbils were analyzed to determine whether such mossy fibers are also associated with nongranule cells (including the...
